Lyrics
Say farewell to your fairweathered friends
And not a second too soon To leave a life among ruins Well there was nothing left but to Cut ourselves loose These fascists and philistines Of violence and fashion These modern day philistines They stand on your hands They stand on my hands Any day now we'll perish These are nervous times
No one can hold a candle to youWhen it comes down to virtue and truth
No one can hold a candle to you
And I dim next to you
No one can hold a candle to you
When it comes down to old-fashioned virtue
Kingdom mineOpen your eyes
Make up your mind
Am I Einstein?
Or am I Frankenstein
You said blow them away
To kingdom come
Or will the kingdom be one?
No one can hold a candle to youWhen it comes down to virtue and truth
No one, no one can hold a candle to you
And I dim next to you
Hi-ro-shimaYes yes yes!
